CTL are delighted to announce that the Queen Elizabeth School; Team Nova, Won the STEM Research Project award whilst competing at the VEX IQ World Championship earlier this month.

The Team consisting of 6 talented and hardworking young students flew out to Dallas Texas in order to take part in the VEX IQ Robotics Challenge, where 720 student teams from all over the world compete by engineering robots around a set challenge. This year’s challenge was ‘Pitching In’, and team Nova placed 4^th in their division with their robot Andromeda. Whilst at the championships the team also received the coveted STEM Research Project award for their entry to the VEX Online challenge.

Team member Zak said “It was an inspiring experience being surrounded by so many enthusiastic people.” CTL sponsored the team earlier this year, to help pay for travel costs and parts for Andromeda. CTL is proud to support STEM projects and are elated at the group’s success of winning the STEM award.

Team Nova is already gearing up for VEX V5 next year and CTL wishes them the best of luck.
